Are Boxer dogs likely to bite?

admin — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 08:50:27 +0000

My neighbor has two huge boxer dogs that run all over the place. I carry pepper spray and I ask my wife to carry it whenever she’s in the yard. Our neighbor on the other side has small children and the other neighbors Boxer sometimes run across my yard into the adjoining yard where the children live.
Is there any danger?

Any dog can bite in the right kind of situation. Whether it be Boxer, Brittany Spaniel, or a mix breed.

But going on just the breed alone? Unless they were improperly socialized or abused or very badly bred, I wouldn’t worry. Boxers tend to be sweethearts, who make great family dogs. They love kids, because they’re kinda kids themselves. Buying a Boxer mean buying a perpetual puppy who thinks life’s a bowl of cherries and they’re just as human as you or I. Yes, they can get too exuberant for children and knock them down, ect. But biting is highly unlikely. As to the biting strangers comment, Boxers normally have good judgements when it comes to people. They just love people.

You’re more in danger of being slobbered and licked to death. But I would call up this neighbor and ask they supervise their dogs. It’s not right to let a dog run where they please.

The breed may look formidable. But the book’s cover doesn’t always tell the right story.

I want to find a boxer pup that is perfect for me in NEW YORK. I’ve been trying to search for them online, but i couldn’t find the one nearest to me and one that can be shipped to me for free. Please help me find a pup! ><

For ‘free’?

Dose of reality here. No dog breeder does that. Either you drive there and pick up, or you pay for shipping. Get real.

How much do most Boxer dogs cost?

Also, where can I buy one that costs around 100 or less?

DO NOT buy from a BYB( backyard breeder) that is the only way you’ll get one that cheap. From a reputible breeder you are looking over $600. and higher. If you really must have a boxer there are MANY boxer rescues all over that would be happy to help you find and adopt a boxer. They are not for everyone boxers are very stubborn and energetic dogs. THat should not be left outside. Boxers require extra training and time.

How protective can boxer dogs -eventualy- be?

admin — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 06:34:27 +0000

We got a boxer puppy hoping it would protect our family if one of us was home alone. Our puppy seems to love everyone. If he’s going to hurt you, he’s going to lick you to death. We hope that eventually he will get a little more protective. Sometimes, late at night a commercial on tv will have a doorbell ring and he’ll jump up and run to the door. But he seems excited, not "ready to pounce" if you will. Is there any hope of him eventually being protective?

Hopefully you never will see your dog be aggressive with your family or guests you have come over. And I do not suggest teaching him to be. That is a recipe for disaster. If a dog is made to think being aggressive is good, there is a good chance of him eventually biting someone and being removed from your home and put to sleep. If you want to keep your dog with you for his whole life, do NOT encourage aggressive behaviors in your puppy. Introduce him to dogs and people to ensure a well socialized dog.

With that being said, *most* dogs can tell if their home or family members are being "attacked" and are likely at that point to switch into a protective mode. This is a natural instinct and one that you hopefully should never see in your daily interactions. Dogs can read body language and if you are uncomfortable or frightened of a person (say breaking into your house) he will be likely to sense that and protect you to his fullest ability.

Good luck with your new baby and I hope you have a long and happy life together!
